If you like authentic Jamaican food this is the take away for you. The food is freshly cooked the portions are a good size prices are reasonable, And the food taste good 👍🏽 The shop clean and the decor nice. They are also opening a vegan take away next door in the next few weeks.

I visited here for the first time since the beginning of the original lockdown as I remember the mouth watering stew fish and the soft, but brilliantly seasoned ackee and salt fish. What a disappointment!!!!! Maybe the head chef is self-isolating cause the fish was dry and the rice and peas was not cooked properly. So much so that I could see the grains of uncooked rice and decided to highlight these in the picture attached. The only reason I gave them a 3 star, is cause I still have distant memories of when this was a good taste of the Caribbean. It has seriously gone down hill though, so I hope I am right and the chef does get better soon. However if I am wrong then you need to seriously think about hiring a new chef... will I go back or recommend ? No ....True flavours Caribbean restaurant is just down the road.

Sometimes it's really good, sometimes it's average, on a rare occasion you might get someones leftover in the heater order that's been sitting for hours that's borderline horrid, but one thing for sure it's still one of, if not the best in norwood, but it's also miles from what it used to be a decade ago. Keep your expectations tepid to avoid disappointment, and you might be(sometimes) pleasantly surprised, basically sometimes it's hit and miss, and no way near consistent as it used to be.

I drove all the way from NW and was worth every bit of traffic I sat in #flavours

We stopped by to pick up lunch and decided to share a large box with a bit of everything, including jerk jackfruit with jerk mayo, vegan Mac cheese (delish!), vegetable curry, chickpea curry, slaw, rice & peas and plantains. All of it was fantastic, we chatted with the chef and the place is bright and airy with a few tables for eating in. Absolutely amazing and affordable. The menu rotates but if you can get the jerk jackfruit and Mac cheese if they have it. A great vegan version of the popular restaurant next door.

Sells good rich Jamaican food. The workers are great and this shop all there to be an Caribbean community as people line up for there food or as they wait.

D. H.

I've been getting my food from here since I was 16 I'm now 40 so in total 24 years and it's the best take away onnroad que might be abit long but that's what happens when the food is elite well Done Patrick ur a legend in South still bigupppp

S. M.

Respectful of covid restrictions. Service was slow and confusing at lunchtime; the server was operating in a nearly dark cafe, he wasn't communicative and needed a clear mask. I couldn't see the menu despite seeing all the cakes and drinks at the shop window, some with product names but the display was too clattered.

J. C.

Top Caribbean take away with a small capacity of seating. West Norwood has more than its share of take aways and there must be at least 10 along this high street. But the playfully named Tickle Me is one of the longest established and for good reason and one of the busiest. The secret is good quality traditional recipies all served in their recently refitted shop. Another unique and inovative shop designed by offbeat creative and fitted out by Catersales. Great food , great atmosphere and great service what more could you ask for.

D. B.

It was a very nice meal i totally enjoyed it and it was a very good service

S. B.

The most friendliest Caribbean takeaway I have ever come across in London. My favourite, the Pepper Steak meal, is absolutely divine thanks to the lovely seasoning. I love the little touches they add to it as well. Whenever I visit the shop there are normally queues because the food is so good.

R. M.

The food always taste good. We travel miles to buy there to be sure we enjoy what we pay for. This little place feeds our hearty appetites well. Our place of choice for Caribbean food since 2007. Just try for yourself.

M. P.

Food to die for I used to live right near here I now live in Kent and drive all the way there to get food the only Caribbean shop I will eat from

a.

Best pepper steak around . Unfortunately the customer service is a disgrace especially from the male staff member. I have tried a number of times getting through to them over the phone with no answer. When I'm actually at the restaurant I see the staff just talking and ignoring the phone. Outrageous. Went there at 5PM for them to tell me I can only have curry chicken because that's all they are serving. I love this restaurant but I can see it going down hill.

C. C. O.

Really nice jerk meal with flavour, they add extras too such as plantain and potatoes and pasta to your food. I like spice so suited me well. Food was also piping hot. Nice looking staff 👌

L. C.

Went there for a quick bite to eat before work. Restaurant had 4 people waiting for food. Asked for a small portion of peppered steak. The food was amazing, I've eaten in many carribean outlets and I will vouch for this place as the best tasting peppered steak out of them all. The meat was tender, it was served with rice and some pasta and also plantain and a fried potato. For 7 pounds my only complaint would be that it could have done with a bit more sauce as I felt it was all a bit dry however top marks for flavour. Will be dropping in again soon.

T. P.

My experience was okay. The wait was average. The staff was friendly enough, but the food portion was ridiculous. I was shocked at the teeny meal I received. I was told it came with plantains, potatoes, pasta. When the dish came it had one thin piece of plantain, one chunk of potato and a squiggle of pasta. Seriously one piece of pasta. There was some uneventful rice shoved in the bottom. The takeout container was the size of my hand. It was about $9 U.S. Nope.

E. C.

What can I say! One of the best catering experiences of my life even though the jerk chicken was quite spicy for my Caucasian taste buds the plantain slapped differently. To top that off the cashier was very polite and pretty even though she was small she brightened up the room Defiantly Recommend this Caribbean Cuisine if your in the area.

I. B.

i went to the shop on a Wednesday evening and was served by a seasoned looking bird with great manners. The juicy steak and jollof did not dissapoint , tickling my senses, leaving me with a full stomach and bright smile. Would recommend.

K. C.

Food taste good

L. F.

We ordered a mac&cheese steak&rice curried goat! All of it was brilliant, meat was soft and love that they add a little extra like pasta .. potato ect.. better than most yard shops in that area!!

E. P.

Waits long but overall 5 star business. Patrick Your a legend!

L. R.

Steak dinner is most popular, I enjoy stew chicken too. Best to call when they are least busy because if the shop is full with waiting customers those orders will be managed first. Be prepared to wait for your meal as it is not step in step out.

N. L.

I miss this place and Patrick now I no longer live in the area. Great food

W. G. (.

Ordered a curry chicken meal that had no sauce so was very dry. Customer service was slow and too casual in my opinion. Could be a great place if they make some improvements.

J. B.

Busy during lockdown queues outside for social distancing . Not sure why pasta put with white rice and fish, strange combination. Fish was well cooked. Will go back after lockdown.

J. S. M.

I always get the steak which is good-can sometimes be a bit dry. Not the best I've had but edible when you're hungry. You can call ahead but it doesn't particularly mean it will be ready when you get there.

M. B.

The best food locally . I travel from Thornton Heath to Westnorwood to get food.keep up the good work Patrick and co.

D. K.

Their food is the best i have tasted in a long time. They are very welcoming and polite. Excellent food

D. K.

I can't share,anything with anyone,tickle me it's mine's now I've found it, I can't have people eating off all the food there, what about me,don't go there ,you here how it's making me talk, the food too good to share.

B. c.
